I'm sorry, but I'm probably gonna come off as a bit mean in this post. I don't really like the majority of these. Small pokemon, such as Victini and Snivy, look pretty good the way you did them; however, big Pokemon, like Kyurem, just look really blurry and not clear at all. This is probably just mainly my opinion, but it really does look like you just shrunk down all the sprites, which (as you proved) takes little time or effort to do.

Feel free to argue/point out inaccuracies with my comments, Shuckle-rock$. But some look pretty alright; just a lot of them don't, in my opinion.

I'm gonna have to agree with Rex on this one. Most of the images are blurry, and to be quite frank, it takes almost no effort to do what you did. I spent just a handful of minutes writing a PHP script to manipulate a batch of the larger sprite images, and was able to make this relatively quickly.

In the past, the sprite emoticons have been a compilation of work from multiple people making them by hand, usually for Psybuck rewards (in the case of non-staff entries). If we really decide that we need new emoticons for Gen V, a similar event may take place. Though, for now, the world seems to be surviving without them.

Yeah, what they said. Some of the ones of smaller Pokemon are problably usable, but the larger mon's need better resolution. Take these for example:

See how their outlines are clearly visible, and that the colors arn't distorted? If we're going to add Gen V smilies, they should be of comprable quality to the old ones.

Since my birthday last year, the site hasn't updated at all, and people have been slowly trickling away from the forums over the weeks. I've had this site as my internet homepage for ages, and I anxiously awaited the resurgence that I hoped would come. But it never came. So, it is with a heavy heart that I announce my permanent leave of Psypoke. As a moderator, I wished only the best for everyone here, and worked to maintain a jolly environment where everyone could discuss cartoon monsters in peace. Now, I wish all those who happen to be reading this message good luck in whatever endeavors you have chosen to pursue, and that your futures be bright.
